Instagrammer in Residence

Philippa Thomas (March 2018)

'I’d say my style of photography is quite graphic, and occasionally abstract – I’ve always loved the idea of taking photos of people, but somehow I seem to be drawn to inanimate objects…!'

@lostandffound

'I really enjoy looking for interesting details, shapes and colours, and finding beauty in the mundane.'

What inspires you about the Barbican?

'It feels like the Barbican is full of contradictions – harsh yet serene, full of history yet new and exciting, well-known yet undiscovered. There’s so much history around the area which I find fascinating – not long ago I discovered that part of the old London wall still exists within the Barbican estate! '
